 Some of the country names we use on the metrics pages make us sound very
 political.

 Top examples include "Islamic Republic of Iran", "Democratic Republic of
 the Congo", "Democratic People's Republic of Korea".

 We should replace these names with the simpler names that many people
 expect, in the case of Iran.

 I'm not sure if "North Korea" is less political though, so there are still
 some landmines to navigate here.
